Letter Of Medical Necessity

I am getting so frustrated. My surgeon has everything except this letter and when I call my PCP they said they already sent medical clearance. My surgeon's office says this doesnt count. I dont want to have to make an appt (and pay a copay) to my PCP just to tell them in person what I have been telling them on the phone that I need a Letter Of Medical Necessity. My PCP even told me in person when I last saw him that it would be no problem and they'd write a letter up. :laugh:

Write your own letter, fax it to your PCP and ask them to sign it and fax it back to YOU. Then you fax it back.

I did it, and was fine. I looked up wording on the net, and used examples.

Good luck!

I had the same problem...everything in except this "letter". Follow what the previous poster said....they will sign for you. They just haven't a clue about all this "stuff"
